What a Nite/Day

Most of you know that I went into the hospital last nite. I went to my doc appointment and they said my blood pressure was sky high and since I didn't feel the baby move a whole lot, they wanted me to get some tests done. Since this was at 4:30 at the office, they told me to just go to the hospital that way the blood work would get back faster. So I came home, we got the kids and headed off to Mercy. Got there and got hooked up to the heart monitor and all that good stuff. Blood pressure was still kinda high, but not as bad as it was at the doc office. After about an hour of being there I was having some contractions. Nothing to bad, but they were VERY consistent! Jena came and got the kids for us, THANK YOU AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (What would I do if you weren't around?) Then the doc came in and checked me and I hadn't really dilated since the last time the nurse checked me, but decided to hang on one more hour, just because the contractions were still coming. I had Skylar in 2 hours, start to finish, so I didn't want to go home and then have to come back..... I am dilated to a 2 and just waiting right now! :O I go back tomorrow afternoon to see the results to see if I have preclampisa (SP?- too tired to think!! :OP) or not. So I am pretty tired from along nite, but everything is ok! Thanks for your prayers!!!

On a good note,
If you haven't seen Curt's blog, we got a house in Maryland!!!!!!!! WHOO HOO!!!!!!!!!! The seller accepted our offer within hours of him putting it down! PRAISE GOD!!!!!!!!!!!! The house is a little smaller than this one, but it has 5 bedrooms! :O) PLUS on an acre of land!!! PLENTY of sunshine to have a garden, no hills, and there are trees, but not like here!!! :O)

Will keep everyone posted on my lovely doc appointment tomorrow! The doc said it could be in 2 hours or 2 weeks before this baby comes! I am praying for sooner! The movers will be here the 14th to pack everything up, then they will load the van on the 15th. We will prob spend the nite in a hotel the 15th, then head on out to IN. Then from there to Maryland and we sign on our new house the 21st!!!!!!!

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Update on Dad...

Mom called a little while ago. Dad will be admitted, they aren't sure yet what caused the pain. He had fever, but it now is broken. He is also a little jaundice, so that is why they were/are thinking that his stent moved... They had to poke him 3 different times to try and get an IV in, his veins were so tight because he was in so much pain, he was tensing up. They took some blood from both arms and are still waiting on the results of that. They also did a chest x-ray. So still waiting, but atleast he isn't in any pain. The gave him a shot of morphine to take care of the pain, and it finally worked.
